RX7Club Calender

I was going to design a calendar for my own personal use, - then thought about the community, thought maybe more people would want one if I can reproduce them cheaply enough.

First thing I need is pictures, 4 FBs, 4 FCs, 4 FDs, preferably some winter shots, summer, fall, spring, you get the idea.

Show me what you got, and you may get in the calendar if you so wish. If the demand is high enough, and I make enough of them, all cars chosen for the calendar will get one of them for free.

Trying to get this put together for 2010, so I hopefully can get all of them within the next week or so.

if you don't have much experience with designing things for print, my quick words of advice, are to make sure the photos that people submit to you are 300dpi (dots per inch), this is what's considered print quality, as opposed to web quality (72 dpi).

I honestly doubt that anyone here, except maybe a few rotorheads here will be able to supply you with that kind of resolution.

I went to school for multimedia arts and design, I'll find something I can work with. I just need as high resolution as I can get - I'll work out the rest of the details.

not being a dick but I'd like actual backgrounds that aren't distracting to the cars if this were to take place. Not a relative or friends Tundra hanging out in the driveway. haha.

I have the high res versions if your interested. I just don't wanna run up my bandwidth by posting it up on here.

If you would like to email me your high-res photos you can do so. Send me a PM requesting my email address if it's not already on here.

They must be your cars, because I need consent from the owner of the car, and would also like to add a little blurb about the car in the calender as well.

Glad to see there's interest in this. I liked a lot of the photos people have posted, except I do agree - Lose the Tundra. :p

Send me some good stuff, and I will get this out hopefully in the next couple of weeks, just in time for 2010.

If you can contact them and get them to allow me to use it, I would greatly appreciate it. It's a great shot. I need a high-res image of it.

Or if you can get a similar shot of it, that would be good as well.

Thanks either way.

if you haven't already did this you might want to post up similar threads in both the 3rd and 1st gen sections so that you will be more likely to get good pics of those type cars.

i wish i could get into this calendar but my car won't go into paint until the 23rd...... unless you want an FC with the craziest color blue you probably ever seen on one in your calendar....lol

I'm after beat up track cars, to clean stock. It's all part of the RX-7, you got the track beast, and the street sports car.

no one will agree on this as to what type of cars should be in the calender.

dont ask for opinions, just pictures and make your own calender. Cheap ***** wont buy them anyhow, lol

Yep, you'll also need the consent of the photographers. Using photos without the proper rights/permissions constitutes infringement.

Great to see allen g posting up, I knew he had some great shots for this sort of thing.
